'Be more professional & use common sense’- Radio callers to ‘Supa Cop’
Close to one month ago, November 7, 2016 Mr Callwood was reinstated to the force. He had been interdicted from duty after being found guilty of indecent assault.
Since his return to the roadways with the blessings of Police Commissioner Michael ‘Mick’ Matthews and Governor John S. Duncan OBE, Mr Callwood has been issuing tickets like they were going out of style to erring motorists and other road users.
While many seem pleased for the national shake-up, some are not so pleased with the manner in which Mr Callwood executes his job.
Using the opportunity to have their voices heard, a caller to the programme made it clear that he is not pleased that ‘Supa Cop’ is back. He even went as far as calling him “stupid” and “ignorant.”
“Now I don’t want to put down no one because all of us have our shortcomings, but that guy so stupid and ignorant I don’t know why they put him back in the force,” he said.
Holds up traffic unnecessarily
“Some days ago he held up the whole traffic to give a man a ticket, instead of pulling the man off! People have to go to work! A police officer is supposed to be an intelligent person and you are supposed to use your common sense. You don’t have to have a doctorate, a master’s degree to have common sense and you have certain guidelines to follow, but use your common sense,” the clearly irate caller said.
He also argued that the infamous police officer should also be able to give people a break and behave as a professional.
“You are supposed to do your job in a professional manner!”
Another caller who was in agreement said her daughter was charged with being at the front of a bus, sandwiched between the driver and another passenger for not wearing a seat belt.
“I’m calling in agreement with the gentleman that just called,” she stated.
According to her, her daughter who is a college student was on her way to town and both the driver and the other passenger had their seat belts on, but she was not aware that there was a seat belt in the middle.
“So on her way to town she was hold up by the same cop and given a ticket.”
He came back with a vengeance
“I think he came back on the force with a vengeance but he has to use better judgment,” the disturbed caller expressed, adding that her daughter had to pay a $100, and the driver was also given a ticket.

The driver deserved his behind to get a ticket because he put his safety first and his passenger behind. He shouldve insisted she put on the seat belt before he even drove off. as much as i hear everyone complaining about how much ticket he giving everyday, no one yet is to say that he is doing something illegal. Why dont you disgruntled, unhappy drivers call his superior and report him for his conduct then? Tell his boss to tell "Supa Cop" give you a break on the stteet when you break the law and you wilfully know you breaking it but driving down the street hoping that you dont get caught.
So what the hell does his house or children has to do with him commiting himself to his job and the oath he took? Half of you out there raping, molesting, thiefing, killing, street pharmicist and the list goes on but want an officer of the law to show a lil consideration. On your day of calling may the good lord burn your concience to repent of all your evil thoughts
God bless u.
I think pulling a man off was what got him suspended in the first place wasn't it....
